Adjusting the clutch VAZ-2106

In the device of any car there is aelement as a clutch. This unit is designed to transfer torque from the flywheel of the engine to the gearbox. To enable these two units (motor and transmission) to engage, a special clutch disc is used. VAZ-2106 is equipped with a friction element. It's a single-disk drive. Also in work the main and working cylinder of coupling is involved. VAZ-2106 has a fairly simple device. However, sometimes there are problems. So, when used by owners, the VAZ-2106 clutch is periodically adjusted. Photo and description of the process - later in this article.

It should be noted that the main advantage of machinesthe older generation is the possibility of self-maintenance and repair without specialized keys and equipment. So, the adjustment of the VAZ-2106 clutch can be made even in the absence of a garage or inspection pit. All you need is a minimum set of locks and heads.

When to do this?

Beginners often ask themselves: When is the VAZ-2106 clutch adjusted? The clutch drive is arranged in such a way that there is a free wheel on the pedal. So, in norm it makes from 0,4 to 2 millimeters. If there is a large play of the pedal and noticeable "dips", then the settings of the element have lost. The car needs a repeated adjustment of the clutch. VAZ-2106 will not work correctly. At люфте there is no integration of the mechanism in working joint with a check point. Therefore, as soon as the pedal starts to fail, you need to re-set the free stroke.

Note that the gap should be between the pusherwith a clutch fork. In the normal state, the backlash does not exceed five millimeters. How to check free play? To do this, it is enough to take a hand on the clutch fork (it is under the bottom, next to the box) and shake it from side to side.

Pay attention to the clutch slave cylinder. VAZ-2106 is completed by them near the transmission. The element should not contain traces of fluid flow. If the anther is damaged or the connection is leaking, the mechanism must be replaced.

Adjusting the clutch VAZ-2106 - method number 1

In this case, we will expose the gap fromcar interior, directly on the pedal itself. A special bracket will be installed here. On the latter there is a pusher of the master cylinder of coupling and a nut. Thanks to them and the necessary clearance between the two elements (pusher and clutch cylinder) is exposed.

Note that from the cabin you can set only the initial pedal stroke. If the gap corresponds to two or less millimeters, we proceed to set the backlash from below the car.

Method No. 2

Now we need to set the fork pusher stroke. It is adjustable up to 5 millimeters. Use a wrench to hold the travel stop. We loosen the locknut for two turns. Then rotate the spanner with a wrench in the direction of the bracket. We select the necessary clearance by a selective way. After this, again, hold the stop and tighten the lock nut back. We take the ruler in hand and measure the pedal travel gap. To do this, press the hand on the clutch pedal until there is no apparent resistance. Measure how far the fork is moved. If necessary, put the gap again.

Adjust the pusher of the working cylinder

Adjust the optimal stroke of the pedal by adjusting not only the main clutch, but also the clutch slave cylinder.

To do this, detach the tension spring from the forkoff clutch. We need this in order to reduce the resistance when adjusting. Next, we set the ruler so that it rests against the end of the element. Then, with your hand to the stop, press the clutch fork. We fix it in the squeezed position. Remember how the fork is located relative to our ruler, and measure the free stroke.

Go to the very setting of the working cylinder. Since the element is under the bottom, it may have traces of dirt and corrosion. To unscrew the desired nut, use VD-40 or its analog from the manufacturer "Mannol". You need to unscrew two keys.

One hold the adjusting bolt, the secondloosen the clutch slave cylinder lock nut. Fix the pusher so that it does not rotate. We regulate the free running of the element. We tighten the lock nut and install the spring into place. We check the operation of the system. Free turn should be normalized.

Change the clutch by hand without removing the transmission

Sometimes the exposure can not be achievedthe desired result. In this case, only the replacement of the clutch on the VAZ-2106 will help. Without removing the box, this is quite possible. So, where do the work begin? First unscrew the bolts of the cardan drive and the shaft itself. Then disconnect the contacts from the reverse indication sensor. Twist the clutch cover bolts. Dismantle the traverse of the bottom. With the thirteen key, unscrew the cushion mounting cushion nuts. The transmission itself is pushed aside, opposite to the engine, with the help of the mount. As a result, the box should lie on the exhaust pipe of the exhaust system. To the unit does not sag and does not jump off when replacing the clutch, support it.

What next?

At the next stage we have to remove the basketadhesion. To do this, fix the position of the flywheel (you can use the mount) and unscrew the bolts of the basket one by one. You will need a key for thirteen (to speed up the process, use a head with ratchet collar). Gently push the unscrewed basket aside and remove the worn clutch disc. We also need to remove the clutch release bearing of the input shaft and the clutch release fork.

Next, we only need to replace worn outelements and collect everything in reverse order. Note that with the clutch survivability, the shaft bearing must not be noisy. If there is such a symptom, the element changes to a new one. On the disc itself, there should be no traces of carbon deposits (otherwise it is a burnt clutch).

The petals of the basket are also checked. If they stand unevenly relative to each other, the element must be replaced. Pay attention to the working surface of the basket. It should not have scratches and other deformation marks.

Conclusion

So, we figured out how to set free playpedals and how to replace the clutch elements without removing the box from the machine. As you can see, all operations can be performed manually. The main thing when assembling the clutch is to properly center the disc relative to the flywheel. The setting is performed using a mandrel. The latter must freely enter and exit the bearing.
